"Get
to Know ADO",
ADO System delivers faster, more reliable connections.

This
video provides a detailed overview of the benefits and
operation of the ADO (IDC) connection technology. You will
see a demonstration of how the ADO system can save hours
of labor while offering a complete and secure connection.
The
video covers the following topics: Application, construction,
environment advantages, reliability, ease-of-use and installation
labor savings.
Having
Unexplained Motor, Pump or Compressor Failures? Interactive
animations show possible solution.

Animations show
why motor windings overheat and prematurely fail when adverse
three phase voltages are present. Motor health
can be compromised when the voltage at the terminal lugs
is outside the specification window. See what happens
to the winding’s temperature when subjected to: Phase
Loss, Under Voltage and Unbalanced Voltages. Animations
include meters that display reference voltages during fault
events. Click APPLY to
start the animation.

| When
the water is rising, there is no time for a pump failure |
 |
|
Unprotected
pump motor windings can fail, during storms, when the 3
phase power lines are knocked down one phase at a time.
Single phased pumps (one phase disconnected, two connected)
often stall under full load. Within 90 seconds stressed
windings can fail. ABB offers low cost protection that
constantly monitors the incoming 3 phase power. These electronic
watchdogs, disconnect the pump in seconds eliminating the
need for repair or replacement when power is restored.
- ABB's Low Cost Pump Protection Relays - keep pumps running
- Phase
loss protection even when regenerated voltages are present.
- Universal design works with any size pump - 1 to 1200
hp
- Universal voltage designs reduce inventory
- Units
designed for DIN rail or back panel mounting
- Miniature 2" x 2" x 1.2" modules provide
full protection but can be added to any existing control
panel
- ETL tests prove ABB SSAC products provide superior
protection
- Will not allow pump to start if 3 phase voltages
are not within the acceptable range

| New R600
Interface Relays Reduce Installed Cost, Improve Operation |
 |

NEW
Relays & Optocouplers - R600 Series
The new R600 line of relay and optocoupler discrete signal
interfaces were developed with the end user in mind. The
labor required to install, replace or trouble shoot signal
interfaces has been greatly reduced. The revolutionary
new design & style provides an attractive package with improved
functionality. Comparable jumper bars, test switches and
recessed LEDs provide a clean & safe environment.
A typical automation
process may include a control system consisting of a computer,
or a PLC linked to the process,
with a maze of wires connected to various sensors, actuators
and contactors. The R600 line was developed to streamline
installations, reduce space, and improve safety by eliminating
wiring and associated clutter. The R600 range of relays and
optocouplers make it possible to optically couple various
logic signals in a neat, compact, safe & efficient manner.
Key Features:
Relay range
- Input voltage: from 5 to 250 V AC/DC
- Voltage switching range: from 5 to 250 V AC/DC
- Current switching range: from 1 mA to 12 A
- Leakage current and over voltage protection
- Relay Coil Manual Override Switch
Optocoupler range
- Input voltage: from 5 to 250 V AC/DC
- Voltage switching range: from 5 to 58 V DC, from 20 to
400 V AC
- Current switching range: from 1 mA to 5 A
- Overvoltage protection
